Project Grant 2340942
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $447,116 supports research into network formation and function within and between cultural groups from 2023 to 2025. Funded under the federal Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), the grant to Trustees of Boston University will study the development of social relationships between culturally distinct populations and how individuals leverage relationships to access supportive resources. Using multilevel network models...
- This $400,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program will support the University of California, Irvine in developing new techniques for analyzing complex social network data. The research aims to advance methodologies for exploratory, comparative, and semiparametric network analysis, combining innovations in machine learning and statistical theory. Key deliverables include the creation of didactic materials and...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award of $350,000 is funding a research project at the University of Chicago to investigate the role of networks in influencing the outcomes of interventions across various domains, such as education, marketing, and tax decisions. The project will focus on developing new randomized experimental methods and open-source software to enable robust inference of network effects and quantify...
- This $778,024 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075) will support a 3-year longitudinal study to examine neurobiological and contextual factors that contribute to successful transition from adolescence to adulthood. The research team at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) will use fMRI, behavioral measures, and questionnaires to test hypotheses that neural reward sensitivity, tolerance...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award of $300,000 to Florida State University (FSU) supports the development of a new class of latent variable models for network data. The research aims to create models that can capture essential characteristics observed in network data from various disciplines, including the social and life sciences. Key activities include integrating and extending existing approaches to modeling...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award of $160,000 supports a 2-year postdoctoral research fellowship examining social interdependence in primate species. The research, conducted by an early-career scientist under the sponsorship of Drs. Joan Silk and Jason Kamilar at Arizona State University, aims to: Quantify how kinship, social status, and reproductive interests shape social relationships within and across primate...
- This two-year project grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program will fund $191,630 to the University of California, Los Angeles to investigate how technological progress is impacted by network connections between individuals. Specifically, the university researchers will develop an equilibrium model to analyze the interconnection between technological diffusion and discovery within social networks. The model will consider how incentives for...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $775,089 Project Grant to the National Bureau of Economic Research Inc. under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075). The grant will support research to develop innovative methods for collecting social network data inexpensively at scale. Researchers will use the new Aggregate Relational Data method to build two large datasets mapping socioeconomic relationships among vulnerable populations within local communities and across...
- New York University was awarded a $225,254 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) for research titled "Collaborative Research: Network Formation and Bargaining with Exclusionary Commitments." The three-year grant beginning July 15, 2021 will support research examining how networks form when members can make commitments to exclude outsiders from future cooperation. Relevant to the program's goals of...
- This National Science Foundation project grant of $601,615 will fund a contextual analysis of peer experiences during early adolescence under the agency's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075). The Research Foundation For The State University of New York will conduct online data collection via surveys and daily diaries from 300 socioeconomically and ethnically diverse young adolescents at three time points spanning one school year and summer. The project aims to...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a 5-year, $453,914 CAREER grant to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) through its Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075). The grant supports a research project titled "GOING BEYOND THE DYAD: A NETWORK THEORY FOR UNDERSTANDING THE CHALLENGES OF FRIENDSHIP." The project aims to identify the various challenges people face in realizing and maintaining friendships, as well as generate insights into how these challenges are solved. The research involves cross-cultural surveys, laboratory experiments, machine learning, and network analysis techniques. A science communication component is included to disseminate the research findings and train future psychological scientists. This project is intended to advance the basic understanding of social dynamics in friendship and inform the development of interventions to improve mental health, physical health, and economic mobility.
